Unfortunately here xfd shows corrupted fonts. Furthermore all fonts seem to be
affected, but some more than others. For example xfd shows corruption all over
the place for bitstream vera, but very little corruption for arial or monospace
(outside the alphanum characters, so it's not very noticeable).
The bug seems to be trigged by _something_ since at startup everything looks
fine (today it appeared after 6 hours of usage).
I'm not 100% sure that there's a correlation but the corruption seems to appear
faster when rdesktop is in use...
